Re: Painting question
I think the humidity did mess you up. Take an 80 grit DA to it. Nah, just messin it looks good. I don't think you could tell any weather problems from looking at that truck. Like I said in an above post, it is an old wives tale mostly devoted to single stage paints and that does have some effects on weather when painting but not as much on the basecoat/clearcoat type. Good job. Jim

Re: Painting question
not an old wives tale exactly...if you shot old school lacquer 40 years ago the stuff dried so quickly moisture couldnt evaporate out before it flashed.the condition was called blushing ,the paint dried with a cloudy white haze in it that wouldnt buff out.enamels dried slower and werent affected...modern urethanes dont seem to have problem but i'm still paranoid...I would caution anyone using duplicolors quarts of lacquer that they might have problems,but don't know cause i've never shot duplicolor
